DVD interference with booting Windows
I recently solved the problem why windows was hanging on boot up after the "Welcome screen and logo". It hung because I had media in the DVD drive.

Now I would like to solve the issue of media in DVD drive preventing Windows from completing boot up.
It was weird. If I did a warm restart or immediate start after shutdown Windows wouldn't load. If I shut down for five minutes it would start fine. Once I removed the media from DVD drive it would restart or boot normally.
DVD isn't set up to boot in BIOS; I do that by pressing F12 during POST.
So is it my DVD drive that is the problem or is it a Windows bug or configuration issue?
